How do you change the CV joint???

Ok, while doing the tundra brake upgrade i am changing out my CV joint that has a bad boot.

My question is it is getting dark and i need to get this changed out quick. How do you get the CV out of the hub?? On another car i had i just pulled it out but i heard you have to take the hub apart on the 3gen 4runners 2000 to be exact. So what all needs to be done to change the CV?

It is a 2000 4runner limited 4WD. Thanks!
